    This plugin would be great if it went one step further.

    I need to sort entries individually within the taxonomy term.

    So, if I have the taxonomy Fruit and the taxonomy terms Apples, Oranges and Pears, I’d like to display all entries under Apples and rearrange the order manually.

    (In other words, it does no good just to display and sort all entries under Fruit, because that doesn’t let me sort entries within a taxonomy term).

    Can you add that feature?

    I understand what you mean, but the plugin already support that feature. So if a term contain child terms, you will be able to sort these too within the parent term.
    If you have issues with this please contact us and we’ll check it for you.

    nsp-code, on further testing, I noticed that child terms can be rearranged under a parent term.

    However, also on further testing, I found the Taxonomy Order plugin doesn’t work at all. The actual content was not sorted.

    The Post Types Order plugin works as advertised. This one didn’t.

    That you mean ‘Taxonomy Order plugin doesn’t work at all’ ? It does work, but there may be a particularity which eventually produce unexpected results. Is the auto-sort turned on? If you still have issues, can you contact us with a login to your site so i can check with that?
    I also see you submitted a poor ratting and mark the plugin as broken.. please do that only if you are sure you followed the plugin instructions and ensure the theme follow WordPress standards, otherwise you will need to apply the order within queries manually!

    nsp-code:

    I went back and disabled Post Types Order, created child terms for custom post types entries, and found Taxonomy Order now works as advertised.

    On reflection, both plugins appear to accomplish the same thing. Whether you’re dragging around entries by custom post type or taxonomy, they still wind up in the same place.

    I’ve corrected my rating accordingly. Thanks for following up, and for providing these plugins.
